Mind your Ps and queues when you're busy waiting in line

If there's one thing we Brits are good at, it's queuing.

Mind your Ps and queues when you're busy waiting in line

You know where you are when you're standing in a line, waiting your turn for something.

You don't even have to be waiting patiently - it's perfectly acceptable to sigh repeatedly and even strike up a conversation with the person in front or behind you about how long it's taking.

Plus they become an immediate ally should anyone do the unthinkable and try to push in.

It's something we got used to during Covid in particular; in every town in every county, people stood and waited their turn for the privilege of going into the supermarket to spend their money. Plus don't forget the queue for the till when you'd finished stocking up on rice, pasta and tea bags.
